Paper in Oslo

A selection of paper bought on my shopping spree at Norway Design, papirgalleriet in Oslo and snapshots taken outside gallery TM51

Cool Krallen

In a need for a Krallenzange? Who cares that the nailtrimmer was missing when all you need is the smashing cover!

Turn on book!

I am horrible at gymnastics, but I love this book about «modern» gymnastics! Lovely layout :) Written on the back: «This is the book you have been waiting for!»

A whole lot of of holes

I bought a holepuncher and punched the hole out of my vintage magazines from the fourties and sixties and the result was a collection of tags.

Birthday beerlabel

My husband brewed his own beer for christmas and on his 30th birthday in december we went to Mikrobryggeriet and did som beertasting. I surprised him with a custom label for his own «beer by BAS» and the beer found it´s way under the christmas tree for beerloving family and friends.

Historic Tea

More illustrations made for Gaven på bakklandet. This time it´s the «Gamle bybro» and its portals leading you over to Bakklandet. One teabagholder for big cups and one smaller.

A very nice tradition

This years christmascards

Besides making christmascards, I love getting them :) This year some were received,
some unsent and one came in return..

Kingsize «flettehjerte»

This year was the first time we hade a (real) christmas tree in our apartment and I made an oversized «flettehjerte» (woven heart basket) under the tree. Instead of using paper I made it out of felt and it measures 90x90cm. Next year I may keep candy in it..or get a giant tree to complement..

A little treeangel

My christmas meltdown

This year four angels lights and shine each sunday before christmas eve. I´m not sure what happen this last sunday with candle number two..

24 gifts before christmas

I came up with the idea for this years «adventskalender» the day before 1th of december and happily decided not to stress and fuss to much, so all I needed was a box and numberstickers (bought from a southkorean shoeshop) Each day I put something in the jar for my husband, and if he forget to check it out, it´s one less present to think about ;)

My new rolling storagebox

I´ve been looking for a wodden box like this a while now, and just my luck I found it at Fretex (Sally Ann). It was even more perfect that it was an old milkcrate belonging to Trøndermeieriet (the old name for Tine) where my grandfather was chief of office.

Grandfather: the one smoking the pipe :)
